Carbon dioxide is a gaseous molecule made up of the elements, C and O. Each mole of carbon dioxide has one mole C and two mole oxygen atoms.

Molar mass of carbon dioxide (CO_{2})=(1 * 12.01\frac{g}{mol}) +(2* 16\frac{g}{mol})=44.01\frac{g}{mol}

Percentage by mass of carbon = \frac{(1*12.01\frac{g}{mol}) }{44.01\frac{g}{mol} } *100=27.3%

Percentage by mass of oxygen = \frac{(2*16\frac{g}{mol})}{44.01\frac{g}{mol} } *100=72.7%

Therefore C is 27.3 % and O is 72.7 % by mass in 1 mol CO_{2}

For a certain experiment, a student requires 100 milliliters of a solution that is 8% HCl (hydrochloric acid). The storeroom has
exis [7]

Answer:

70 mL of 5% HCl and 30 mL of 15% HCl

Explanation:

We will designate x to be the fraction of the final solution that is composed of 5% HCl, and y to be the fraction of the final solution that is composed of 15% HCl. Since the percentage of the final solution is 8%, we can write the following expression:

5x + 15y = 8

Since x and y are fractions of a total, they must equal one:

x + y = 1

This is a system of two equations with two unknowns. We will proceed to solve for x. First, an expression for y is found:

y = 1 - x

This expression is substituted into the first equation and we solve for x.

5x + 15(1 - x) = 8

5x+ 15 - 15x = 8

-10x = -7

x = 7/10 = 0.7

We then calculate the value of y:

y = 1 - x = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3

Thus 0.7 of the 100 mL will be the 5% HCl solution, so the volume of 5% HCl we need is:

(100 mL)(0.7) = 70 mL

Similarly, the volume of 15% HCl we need is:

(100 mL)(0.3) = 30 mL

I need help with number 8 please help ASAP.
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

33.33% = 33%

Explanation:

MgCO3(s) + 2HCl (aq) --> MgCl2(aq) + H20(l) + CO2(g)

1 mole of MCO3 will produce → 1 mole of CO2

We need to get the number of mole of CO2:

and when we have 0.22 g of CO2, so number of mole = mass / molar mass

Moles = 0.22 g / 44 g/mol = 0.005 mole

Moles of Mg = moles of CO2 = 0.005 mole

Mass of Mg = moles * molar mass

= 0.005 * 84 /mol = 0.42 g

Percent of MgCO3 by mass of Mg = 0.42 g / 1.26 * 100

=33.33 %

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

In the reaction between p-aminophenol and acetic anhydride to form acetaminophen, 4.5 ml of water were added. This was done to recover the product out the container. Water was used as a means of carrying out the product out the container. However, it should be noted that we would want a small amount to be added in order to avoid the product dissolving onto it.

What is the mass, in grams, of 9.01 x 1024 molecules of methanol (CH, OH) ?
Zina [86]

Answer:

480.6 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of molecules of methanol = 9.01 ×10²⁴

Mass in gram = ?

Solution:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

9.01 ×10²⁴molecules ×1 mol /6.022 × 10²³ molecules

1.5 ×10¹ mol

15 mol

Mass in gram:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 15 mol × 32.04 g/mol

Mass = 480.6 g
